Using AI to Eliminate Wage Gaps

As initiatives around the gender and CEO pay gap increase, organizations are looking for ways to make quicker advances when it comes to promoting fair and transparent compensation processes.

beqom CMO, Tanya Jansen, gave her thoughts to Fast Company on how predictive analytics can eliminate unconscious bias from compensation.

AI based on a variety of rules including education, experience, certifications, and more can make compensation more fair and help businesses move closer to closing pay gaps.
